Excerpt from Our Indian Predecessors, the First Evanstonians: A Paper Read Before the Society by Frank R. Grover, November 2nd, 1901

Avolume could easily be written describing the exploits of the later but still early white and Indian visitors to these shores. The western shore of the lake was the great highway between the Chicago port age and Green Bay and Mackinac. We need not depend upon imagination to paint the picture of the white voy agsur and his Indian companion ply ing the paddle with steady stroke, keeping time to the notes of his boat song, while their birch bark canoes skimmed the surface of the lake. For the Jesuit Relations of those early days will supply the facts.
